Were Egypt supposed to be the best African side? I remember during the draw they "experts" were saying they were the ones to avoid for England.

Morocco were the ones to avoid for me, and I too was wrong there. But I'm sure tons of pundits went for Egypt.

The Spain team has to be the best on paper in the tournament imo. They haven't really shown their quality yet though.

Getting a bit old in important parts of the pitch though and no decent back up for Costa.

Only Iniesta really and they have Isco, Asensio, Koke, and others who could play in his place. You're right about not having backup for Costa though. But most of the best teams don't have great backup for their best striker.
